Simla Village Tales; Or, Folk Tales from the Himalayas

In introducing Simla Village Tales to my readers, I wish to acknowledge gratefully the valuable assistance given me by my sister Mabel Baldwin, who, when I was obliged to leave India suddenly owing to nervous breakdown after the terrible earthquake which visited the Punjaub in April 1905, kindly undertook to complete, from the same sources where I had got them, my collection of folk-tales. Twenty excellent stories contributed by her include Tabaristan, The Priest and the Barber, The Fourth Wife is Wisest, and Abul Hussain. Of the down-country tales my husband kindly contributed Anar Pari, The Dog Temple, The Beautiful Milkmaid, and The Enchanted Bird, Music, and Stream. Both my sister and my husband can speak [x]the language fluently, and as the former has resided many years in the Punjaub, I am confident that her translations are as literal as my own. All the tales were taken down in pencil, just as they were told, and as nearly as possible in the words of the narrators, who were village women belonging to the agricultural class of Hindus in the Simla district. I must add a word of thanks to Mr Hallam Murray for his invaluable assistance with the illustrations. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
